Patient Spotlight: Take a look at McNip, a patient at the The Marine Mammal Center (California) who was admitted for malnutrition and pneumonia. Judging by the photo, there's definitely some R&R going on there!

Wildlife Wednesday! This week’s fact comes from Krislyn, who suggested this fact on our wall. Bald eagles are thought to mate for life, returning to the same nest each year, adding new sticks, leaves, and moss. The males are smaller than the females, and both work together to raise their young, which leave the care of ...the parents after about 15 weeks.

Have you ever seen a superpod of dolphins swiming in tandem? How about several hundred stampeding the open sea in unison?
Take a minute and watch this video suggested by one of our fans on our wall!
Thanks for all the great YouTube vids, keep 'em coming! We might just feature your video soon.
This video was taken from a whale watching boat off the coast of San Diego. The captain said it was the largest pod of dolphins he had ever seen. It's one of those once in a lifetime sightings!!

Wildlife Wednesday! This week’s fact comes from Heather, who suggested this fact on our wall. Octopuses are considered one of the most intelligent and strong invertebrates, capable of opening jars and other containers to investigate and look for food. They are masters of disguise, often mimicking rocks, seaweed, and ev...en other sea creatures to hide from predators. They can also change colors to match their environment and spray ink to make a quick getaway!

Wildlife Wednesday! This fact is brought to you by Lulu who suggested this wildlife fact on our wall. "Opossums DO play dead when scared!" In fact, when threatened, they will involuntarily lay down, draw their lips back, and secrete foul smelling fluids to mimic the appearance of a dead animal.
Tricky, tricky!
